A jury could be selected as early as noon today for the sexual assault trial of former Green Bay Packer James Lofton, recently traded to the Raiders. A group of 99 prospective jurors were questioned in Janesville, Wis.

The jury selection was moved to Janesville because of publicity in Brown County, where the National Football League club is based.

Twenty-four prospective jurors were singled out for individual questioning, and attorneys finished with 17 of them before the court recessed for the day. Lofton, who has pleaded innocent, is accused of forcing a 30-year-old woman to perform oral sex outside a Green Bay nightclub Dec. 19.
